Eli Tomac: You can't say Eli didn't try to win the championship Saturday night. Some may question his tactics, but he left it all out there on the track and all of us racing fans reaped the benefits. From the press conference Friday you could tell Tomac was trying to get into Ryan's head and that leaked into the Main event on Saturday. Tomac got the lead, but couldn't shake Dungey off of him, so he decided to ride just conservative enough to get a pack of five riders bunched up. A mistake let Dungey by, but Eli retaliated and made another pass for the lead. Once this happened you could tell Eli was trying to get Ryan to make a mistake (and almost did a couple times), but that let Jason Anderson make the pass on both of them for the win. I for one think you have to do what you have to do to win the championship at the last race right? Nothing that he did to Dungey was "too dirty or unsafe" and if anything, he was just trying to knock him over the berm. I for one think that is fair game when you are looking at a paycheck of about a million bucks. If he would of took Dungey down in a berm would that have been ok? For the last race of the year and the championship, I would say YES! If he was riding defensive and cross-jumped Dungey that would have been a different story. However, Tomac tried hard to make Dungey bobble several times, which in my eyes was a smart move. It didn't work but at least he can hold his head up high and say he gave it his all. Tomac won 9 races and was the fastest rider of the year, yet he was consistent enough to beat RD1.
